THE WORK SO FAR
03 / Your mentor
120+ engineers.
One person at a time.
I’ve mentored more than 120 engineers. The work starts with understanding the person, not prescribing a career path.
As a Principal Engineer and former CTO, I’ve worked across architecture, team leadership, and delivery. I bring those perspectives to the problems you’re facing now.
We’ll look at your actual work, ask the uncomfortable questions, and make your next move more deliberate.

More about my background ↗04 / Questions
A few good
questions.
Is this right for my level?
The focus is experienced software engineers, especially those growing toward Senior, Staff, or broader technical leadership. If you’re unsure, bring your situation to the free call and we’ll discuss fit.
What happens on the free call?
We’ll talk about your current role, the change you want, and what is getting in the way. You can ask questions about mentoring, and we’ll decide whether there is a useful way to work together.
What does ongoing mentoring cost?
The introductory call is free. The price and session cadence for ongoing mentoring depend on the support you need. We’ll discuss both before you decide to continue.
Can we work on a real project?
Yes. Design documents, promotion evidence, architecture decisions, and technical communication are useful starting points. Only bring material you’re allowed to share; anonymized examples work too.
Can you guarantee a promotion?
No. Promotions depend on your organization, opportunities, and decisions outside our control. Mentoring helps you build stronger judgment, clearer evidence, and a more deliberate plan.
